What the gurus are saying

Gurus who tested it praised the formula for blending seamlessly and setting to a satin finish without looking dewy, plus the ability to build coverage with light tapping rather than heavy hand. The shade range earns particular note: those with fair skin or cooler undertones say the newer Olay shade finally lets them contour without it reading orange or too dark, while the Biscuit shade works for people wanting more defined structure. The main trade-off is price, which gurus acknowledge as steep, though they say the formula's foolproof quality and longevity make it worth considering during sales.

"The thing that I'm loving loving loving the most as far as bronzers go is this Westman Atelier Contour Stick. You guys know I've loved this formula for years, but they recently released a brand new shade called Olay and I haven't shut up about it. If you have fair skin and you struggle to find a contour product that doesn't turn you orange, look no further. It's fabulous. It's pricey, but definitely worth picking it up during the sale."

My Favorite Makeup Look of the Year... So Far
"I'm going to go into my Westman Atelier Contour Stick. This is that new shade that I can't seem to shut up about. It's called Olay, and it is perfect shade for me. I can literally just draw on my skin and it always looks nice."
NEW Rare Beauty Eye Collection... Better This Time?!
"I've been loving this new shade of the Westman Atelier Contour Stick. I have never really been able to color on my face with a contour stick because it's always way too much for me until now. I feel like I can literally just draw on my face and it looks good, which is crazy for me. It just normally requires so much more control when it comes to a contour stick. So I appreciate that about this shade mostly. I already knew the formula was great, but the shade is so much better for my skin tone than Biscuit. Biscuit still works and it's a little more cool toned actually. So if you want more like structure, it's still great. But if you want to like draw on the face and you have a skin tone similar to mine and it's hard for you to find contour sticks that don't look too dark, you should definitely try this. It's a pricey product. I hate how expensive it is, but like it is such a foolproof formula."

If I Took You to Sephora, Here's What I'd Buy You! 😍
"This is what I use to sculpt the face and it's so beautiful. There's quite a bit of product in here, and there's just something about the formula that I love. It's pricey, it's like stupidly pricey actually, but the formula I cannot deny it is so good, it's so beautiful. This blends itself out, the color is phenomenal as well. The shade I use is biscuit. If I just went off of formula not price, I would say go with the Westman Atelier. This one's amazing."

"I especially love this contour stick. It's not super dewy when you put it on, which I like because it is easy to blend and then it just sets perfectly. If you blend it too much with a brush it seems like it almost disappears, but if you just kind of tap it and especially tap the edges of it, then it just looks really perfect and seamless on your skin and it gives you this kind of satin finish. So it's a really nice product to use for contouring and it's the right kind of brown tone. Also it's got that cool tone to it instead of that orangey brown bronzer tone. There's a really big difference in my opinion between wearing like a contour stick that has that cool tone versus that bronzer color that feels a little bit warm."
